I never said Mega Venusaur is a sweeper though.

252 HP / 128 Def / 128 SpDef is better than all defenses spread. It increases more bulk as well as recover more from Synthesis.

Moveset wise, Toxic and Venoshock are not the most useful. Two Sludge Bombs do more damage than combination of these moves. Not to mention you need to intoxicate the opponent in order to do real damage to the opponent with Venoshock.

- Sludge Bomb

- Giga Drain

- Synthesis

- Hidden Power Fire / Leech Seed / Sleep Powder

I will move this one up now anyway since it doesn't have many counters as of now (Psychic and Flying types are not that common). It also offers good synergy both defensively and offensively. As you said, Sleep Powder and other utility moves are useful as well.
